I just feel compelled to write a review for this movie right after I watched it. I rarely give a 9 or 10 for a pinoy love story but I have to give it to the makers of the film for it is well-written and well executed. That is to say that I have very high expectations prior (knowing that Alessandra and Empoy's previous movie team-up was a hit). Overall, it met my expectation for a love story.
*Great story telling despite the fact that there are elements that I think I've already seen before. The sequences all made sense without confusing the audience (which is one pitfall of movies with flashback and mixed up timeline scenes). Subtle yet effective comedic sequences. There's just one section where one of the main actor suddenly fell out of love which confused me but i would let that pass as it was explained later on the film.
*Great chemistry with the main actors. It did not have an ensemble cast but the main actors delivered to make it enjoyable and worth watching.
*On a technical standpoint, I love how simple and notable cliche scenes were executed. Every scene was well thought of to give it something different. It was well edited to give it more cinematic value. It would have been great watching it in theaters and it's too bad it did not get a theatrical release. Must watch and a film that I think will be remembered by anyone who've seen it.
